how easily rheumatism begins, and how in-
 sidiously it grows in the system, until one is
 startled to find himself it's victim in either
 the acute or chronic form. He then learns
 the fearful tenacity of its grip and the utter
 powerlessuess of the ordinary remedies to
 give relief
 Probably to no disease have physicians
 given more study, and none has more com
 pletely baf1ed their efforts to provide spe-
 ciGc; and until Athlophoros was discovered
 there was no medicine which would surely
 cure rheumatism, neuralgia and nervous or
 sick headache. Thousands of testimonials
 like the following prove beyond question
 that Athlopho-os is the only reliable remedy, and that it will do all that is claimed for it. For three months was confined to the house with infammatory rheumatism. So severe was my afhiction the doctors prescrib-
 ed for me forty grains of morphine day, besides steaming me for five hours each day, and many other doses. Notwithstanding l had three physicians, their combined skill did not give me any relief, so, finally be- coming discouraged, I determined to let the
 disease do it's work, had pair of crutches made, and neryously waited for the worst to come, when friend came to me and ad- vised me to try Athlophoros. I took the first dose at six in the evening and two more doses during the night. The next morning, after three months sickness, I went to work, greatly to the astonishment of my many friends, who all thought I would never get around again.

MANUFAUTURED EVIDENCE.

A FOrmer ASenC1n She 1r1al or Fres1" dent Lfncoln's Assassins Impris- oned.
 BALTIMORE, March 17.-Benjamin Span dauer was one of the most important agents in procuring the conviction of Mrs. Mary Surrat in 1965 for participation in the con- spiracy which resulted in the assassination of President Lincoln. It has always been al- legged by those who regarded that unfortunate lady as the innocent victim of the excitement of the time that Span lauer assisted material ly in the manufacture of false evidence which consigned her to the gallows. Spandauer
 has occupied the attention of the police over and over again as an agent of those who were interested in having false testimony present ed in court. To-day the man was arrested and arraigned on 8 charge of endea voring to
 impede the administration of justice by re- sorting to similar line of criminal conduct.
 The charge grew out of Spandauers connec- tion with the recent suit of Mrs. Johanna
 Jenssen for divorce from her husband John
 Jenssen. Judge Fisher passed decree of
 divorce and granting her alimony. In ren-
 dering the decision Judge Fisher said that
 he believed that the evidence given by Span
 dauer as witness against Mrs.
 Jenssen was false from beginning to end. It is alleged that Jensssn has endeavored to avoid the payment of alimony and that he was using Spandauer to help him out. Before the magistrate to-day John
 G. Arnold and F. N. Meyer testified that Spandauer yesterday offered them $100 each 1 if they would go into court and swear they
 had been criminally intimate with Mrs.
 Jenssen which they refused. Spandauer waived an examination and was committed. H. A. Becker also swore out warrant against Spandauer for obtaining money on false pre- | tences. Mrs. Laura Moboas also came to the | court and swore that three years ago her husband left her and now lives in Chicago. | Last Monday Spandauer called upon her and | advised her to get divorce and that he would get up evidence that "would fix it all right" and got $20 from her to undertake the
 case. The woman produced a witness to show that Spandauer was playing double game. John G. Arnold swore that Span l dauer offered him $25 to swear that he had | illicit intercourse with Mrs. Moboas.

NEW CLASSIFICATION


or Dry Goods Calls Forth Protest from,
the Trnde.
New YORK, March 2l.-The dry goods
trade held meeting to-day which wsa
prompted by a notification from tho trunk
line representatives that on and alter
April lst n new classification for. dry goods
would 20 into effect. Resolutions were
adopted In which it was stated that the
new classification would increase the cost
OF freight five per cent on very important
lines OF low priced fabrics. The trade had
not been notified or consulted upon this
question so vitality affecting their interest,
and it was resolved to be the sense OF the
meeting that the proposed new clasaifcs.
ton is unjust and unreasonable, and
against the general welfare OF all sections
Of the country.
The discriminating penalty OF five per
cent. embodied in the new classification
against the use OF packing cases, and in
favor OF canvas covered bales, WAS also de-
nounced rs unreasonable and opposed 10
the spirit Of the public's interests.
A committee will act for the trade in pro-
tests to railroads and, If necessary to the
Interstate Commission and the U. S.
Courts. Shippers ara instructed to sub
init to the new classification only under
protest. This Inter.Stats Commission,
when appointed, will be asked by the
trade 10 como to Nsw York to examine
the subject. The leading houses OF the
trade we're represented at the meeting,

THE BOSTON DISASTER.
a Civil Engineer Testiiics That tho Brld
was tiusnfs.

a Civil Engineer Tcstiiics That tho bridge
Was Unsafe.
BosToS, Mass, March 2l.-The railroad
commissioners resumed their investigation
this afternoon into the causes OF the re.
cent accident at Roelindale.
Henry A. Pomeroy, Of West Roxbury, a
civil engineer and formerly superin.
tendent OF the New York 4 New England
railroad, testified that on the morning OF
OF the accident he found on the southern
abutment OF the bridge broken brake
rod bent like horseshoe, with its points
toward the abutment, and, at that time, he
thought 1t tnight have been the cause Of
the accident. Since then he had been
told by an employe OF the road that he
had found brake hanger about three
hundred feet back on tho track. He
looked for marks on the sleeper and failed
to find any. On looking over the wreck
in the road, however, he found several
badly welded hangers. Then he formed
the theory that the truck hanger broke
and let the brake rod down; that the rod
caught in the bridge, deraiiing tbs cars
He fret Baw the bridge four years ago
last May. From what he saw at that time
he Immediately condemned it. From its
form OF construction he had made up bis
mind that tho h-;'!ge would stand until
somathinc ~ >: rg on top OF it and
then !. a-susu % Go.:. llu had noticed
that the sway OF train round tho curve
hefors the bridge was TOO much and he
reported it to the station agent, saying the
outer rail should be raised. "On the Sat.
urdsy before tho accident" said Mr.. Pom.
eroy, II cemo in on the S:i5 train and
rode in the baggage car, As We struck
the curve felt that the track was worse
than ever and said to tho baggage master
II they don't Tx this track soon you won't
ride over this bridge many more times."
l Irnde in The baggage car on the front OF
the train going in town, because lthousht
it would be more likely. to got over the
bridge than the rear cars. Going out
rode in a passenger cor because the speed
was less and the consequent danger less.
l think there is chance for fully as bad
an accident on the curve below the Forest
Hill citation. 1t is very sharp curve, and
on tue outer rail about the middle OF the
curve there is decided depression. II q
ilange should break on the 6 o'clock ex.
press out Of Boston, which runs nearly
siIsy miles an hour around that curve,
the train would be piled up in Stony
brook"
Several other witnesses testified but de.
veloped nothing Of interest.
